    Anthropological collection - "Leopold Bloom" | 2016 - 2018

Individual memory explores various methods of recording (and recorded) time. The small photo cut-outs, stones, wood and paper elements placed in tiny museum cases constructed from balsa wood appear like visual metaphors of remembrance. The imaginary anthropological collection containing tiny display tables, vitrines, museological tableaux, and miniature statue niches also brings into question the credibility of modern mode of representation in museums.
